Blackstone Career Institute enrolls all students without regard to their age, gender, color, race, creed, religion, disability, or veteran status. All Blackstone students enrolled in an online program must have access to a compatible computer/laptop with internet access. Incarcerated students must be able to receive printed materials via the USPS. Individuals with significant hearing and/or vision impairment should review our course format closely before enrolling to ensure their compatibility with BCI’s education model. Our online programs and materials cannot be properly utilized if a student is unable to operate a computer. Students must provide their own software accommodations compatible with the institute’s learning management system (LMS).

To qualify for admission, an applicant must meet the following requirements:

1. Complete BCI’s Enrollment Agreement for admission. The agreement outlines the obligations of Blackstone and the student. The required down payment must be submitted at time of enrollment.

2. Submit information on high school completion. All students are required to have a High School Diploma or GED Equivalency Certificate to enroll in a Blackstone program. Physical or electronic evidence of this credential must be submitted to the school. Legal Nurse Consultant students must provide evidence of a Registered Nurse (RN) credential.

3. Once Blackstone has received and reviewed the agreement, the accepted applicant will receive a welcome letter with instructions on how to begin their course.

4. New students must complete a Reading Assessment as a first step in their career program. Students access this assessment through BCI’s Online Student Center. Once the assessment is satisfactorily completed (grade of 70% or above), the student can begin their program lessons. Students who receive a 69% or lower are eligible for one retest.
